Abstract (en)

An ammunition magazine assembly is provided with a plurality of operational exit ports (18,20,22,24), all capable of accepting either a modular closure cover (32) or a modular feed chute (34) as ammunition belt contained in the magazine. A plurality of partitions (28) subdivide the magazine interior into a plurality of bays and a plurality of optional removable separators may be installed to subdivide selected bays into bay sections. Undivided bays can accommodate belts of large caliber ammunition, while the bay sections can accommodate belts of small cabliber ammunitions. The magazine assembly is thus readily adapted to bidirectional feeding of an ammunition belt or belts of one caliber or bidirectioal feeding of belts of different calibers. <IMAGE>
